Wake up and smell the coffee TAN

Wed Jan 07, 2015 7:27 pm

Tan HAS TAKEN US BACK 12 YEARS ..He has listened to Dalman who convinced him to employ OLE ..having no English Management experience...he threw money at a bad manager...so now he has received more bad advice from Roeder who was introduced by Dalman.. Roeder has got his friend Russel Slade appointed.. who despite being 53 years of age has never been good enough to Manage in the Championship.

We now see the dismantling of an expensive team of flops or are they just poorly managed by two flops

We now see the rebuilding with Div 1 players in the £75-100k bracket and £150 k


If TAN WANTS TO SELL THIS CLUB OR MAKE IT A CLUB CHALLENGING FOR PROMOTION....HE HAS TO

WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE.

RETURN IT TO BLUE AND STOP .....UCKING OFF ITS SUPPORTERS... REDUCE THE RUNNING COST AND GET RID OF Dalman Choo and the other hangers on with no football experience.I agree these big time earners have to be reduced , but he goes from one extreme to another

Get a manager who knows the Championship and give him a realistic Budget

Or Just Bugger off

I get a reply saying why don't I bugger off...another saying it's a ridiculous post... I do not berate anyone on here about their posts..i may disagree but quantify it..

But to receive 2 posts one which says Bournemouth etc don't buy as Man city do ? I agree but what I am saying is Tan has gone from one extreme to another and that the only way in my opinion to change for the better is to employ a Manager with more experience at this level and with a reasonable budget.... not a bargain basement and not a MAN city TYPE BUDGET...How is that ridiculous...?

Have I ever called your posts ridiculous

The fans need to wake up and smell the coffee. We have to sign players in the £100,000 bracket so our club can be run on as a business without losing money. What's the problem with that?

Malaga ..There is nothing wrong with that.....but I am saying Tan needs to wake up...he is going from one extreme to another...if Slade doesn t come up to scratch I wouldn t be surprised if he sack s him and goes the other way.

Do you really agree with Slade's appointment and with Young as his second in command and with quality players being off loaded and a Division 1 side being assembled? I realise we must be more pragmatic...but TAN IS A MAVERICK...and don't tell me you don't think we haven t gone backwards

Agree we have gone backwards.
Slade has experience has lower level.
Think Slade is only on £100000 a year as a manager so cost cutting all over our club, hence Scott young's appointment.
Only thing I have against Slade is sticking to 442 like Dave Jones used to.
Unfortunately Tan has already cut back spending and us fans have to get used to that as our club cannot function on overpaid players no more.

You're telling me you can't see that Burnley and Bournmeouth have been successful in this league without huge spending? Are you high?

we are signing players we can afford

RFMH... I can see that they have been successful....but my point was that TAN has gone from one extreme to another and has added a manager who if he was any good .. at 53 yrs old would have been in the championship a long time ago... I only said that in my opinion we need a more experienced manager and a reasonable budget...and if that had been put in place before OLE we would be in a better position...CAN you not see that or.. are you only interested in your own view and calling people HIGH or Ridiculous... I do not insult anyone, I have my own views fine if you disagree but don't get personal.
